Firewall exception each time Captivate 8 is launched

Question

Every time I launch Captivate 8 I get a Windows Security Alert asking me to add an exception to my Windows Firewall for Captivate. The details of each exception point to a location inside my appdata\local\temp directory.
C:\users\mstephens\appdata\local\temp\cp3916420360387session\cptrustfolder3916420360387\ad obecaptivatews
C:\users\mstephens\appdata\local\temp\cp8020420386985session\cptrustfolder8020420386985\ad obecaptivatews
C:\users\mstephens\appdata\local\temp\cp11584515494399session\cptrustfolder11584515494399\ adobecaptivatews
I have the main executable added as an exception already but I get the prompt for new temp folders on each launch.

Answer 1

I was having this same issue with Cp8 in Windows 7. I contacted TCS support and they helped me solve it for me. I asked if they would be willing to reply here with a link to download the fix, but they said "We don’t know, when we will be providing the link to the file, however we will be updating about the same on our forum and hopefully can come up with the link to the file shortly."
However they don't have an issue with me posting it, so here it is.
In C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Captivate 8\SWF_Components\ws rename CivitWEb.exe to CivitWeb_bak.exe, or move it to your desktop.
Download CivitWeb.txt from my Dropbox.
Move the .txt version to the \ws folder above and change the .txt extension to .exe.
Launch Captivate.
Once I placed the file, I no longer got the firewall warnings, and no more buildup of cp session folders. I was also having an issued with browser previews not working. That issue was solved also. They said that with this file in place, Edge Inspect preview wouldn't work, but it is working for me.
Hopefully this will help others until Adobe has an official update or fix. Of course this is at your own risk. Good luck.
